Create a security policy
After you create a new policy (from the Policies tab), intelligent prompts guide you through the
process of setting the items. Advice and recommendations are provided as you configure the policy.
A built-in policy is provided (HP Best Practices Base Policy), that you can use as a template for your
own policy.
NOTE: Because the HP Best Practices Base Policy includes specific credentials that are vital for a
secure policy, the policy you create is initially invalid. You must provide the credentials you want
configured on your devices.
The following are selected for remediation and must be provided for a valid policy: Admin (EWS)
Password, SNMPv1/v2 Read Community Name and Read/Write Community Name, SNMPv3
User Name, Authorization Passphrase and Privacy Passphrase.
Because the policy editor is self-guided, this section focuses on information about the policy icons,
how to include or exclude all items in a policy, and how to use the Advanced Policy Settings.
